"They're treating me like a black person." lolololol

I think that one is old and not related to this. I kinda remember it from a year or two ago.

The guy with the BK hat is old too.

Nah he was just crazy.

Oh OK. I forgot the context. I thought it was older.

Bro that dude is a legend

I hope you remember that his name was Dr Jeffrey Epstein

That dude definitely congratulated himself internally for not saying the n-word

Quite a few of these are old, but if the one's on the plane aren't then it further proves my point that the tsa should be abolished.

How does someone on the no fly list get on the plane?

I went to NY a few years back and accidentally left my ticket at the front counter, I got all the way to my boarding area before realizing it. Not sure if it's normal for TSA to just let anyone through but that just seems like a clusterfuck waiting to happen.

I know a guy who got on a few flights with an expired DL. I don't think they pay much attention.

Why do you need a DL to fly as a passenger?

When you go through security/tsa, they ask for your ID. Pretty sure if you check in at the counter that you do too but I could be wrong about that. I only use the counter if I have my dog with me or check bags.

But you're not going to be driving the plane, you're going to be a passenger, and anyways I don't think that the driving licence allows you to drive a plane?

lol

To confirm your identity so they know you aren't on the no fly list.

But you're not going to be driving the plane, you're going to be a passenger, and anyways I don't think that the driving licence allows you to drive a plane?

Well one time these plane passengers decided they wanted to drive a couple of planes and land them on a couple of buildings.

I don't see how requiring a driver's licence to board a plane can prevent people from driving planes into the pentagon, and also why that's a bad thing to be honest.

To identify them. Otherwise you can have someone else buy a ticket in their name and give it to you. You don't necessarily need a driver's license. A passport or state ID works.

I understand what you're saying but I still think that it's wrong to demand a driving license if you are not even going to drive the plane you're boarding. Just my opinion.

😡

Why are you upset, it's common sense!

I had to fly nearly once a week for about 8 months while consulting. The TSA procedures are so inconsistent. Some are massive try hard while others don't give a shit whatsoever. It truly is a cluster-fuck of a system, but it's at least gotten bearable in the past couple years.

I've always treated the TSA line as the idiot-filter. It's mainly there as an extra obstacle to make sure that any terrorism attempts have to pass a bare minimum IQ test to get a shot at a plane. Even then, it still doesn't always work lol.

Luckily, I really doubt any non-state actors are going to try to go after a plane anymore.

Yeah, they completely shit the bed when tested a few years back. Luckily the FBI has a wiretap up the ass of any person who runs a search on the word "fertilizer".

yeah it's kinda frustrating. I went through TSA and they said that my kindle doesn't need to go into a bucket by itself. So then the next time I flew I did the same thing and they made me go through the second check of my bags and bitched at me a bit. It's really so inconsistent and they get pissed if you don't just magically know what needs to be done.

Just give in and get TSA PreCheck. It's amazing. Even if the TSA PreCheck line is longer than the normal one, you will still go through the PreCheck line at much faster pace. Just the fact that you don't have to get all your electronic shit out is such a luxury (especially for a software consultant who regularly had to travel with 2+ laptops and an iPad).

yeah that's what my friend says. I'm going to do this before my next flight.

I hear ya on the stuff. I always have a tablet, a kindle, and a laptop. I feel like I take up 8 bins just for my shit. lol

If you travel internationally or across the land borders frequently (not this past year obvs but eventually), do Global Entry/Sentri/Nexus, which includes the TSA bullshit for not that much more.

I didn't get Global Entry because I'm a typical burger but my mom travels internationally a couple times a year and loves it.

I had my appointment to get a Nexus card last year but then Canada shut the gates 😔

I got mine in Canada at the airport there’s a us consulate thingy right next to the Canadian one done in ten minutes

Chicago TSAs are assholes. I was always really confused at other airports treating me like an actual person. It definitely depends on where you are.

Freedom of speech is more than just what's in the constitution. It's an ideal that has been around for thousands of years. It means I can do whatever I want and you aren't allowed to do anything about it or criticize me in any way.

That was fun. Thanks for links. 😊😊😊

Tbh some of these look like they may be older mask tantrums (how did they even get to the plane otherwise?), but still, lmao

Reading descriptions is for nerds.

All of this just to post that last video. Smh. SMDH!

Damn, you know what?

You caught me. You flat-out caught me. It's time to come clean.

Let me tell you a little bit about how I go through my day, which is also how literally every other moderator goes through theirs.

I wake up in my dingy, unwashed bed (which is covered with suspicious stains), then immediately scream for my mother to come downstairs and tell me that I’m a special boy. Once I feel sufficiently better than everyone else, I log in to Reddit, where I go through all of the top-secret communiques that I receive from whichever political party you personally dislike. Having accepted my marching orders, I motivate myself by going to town on my own backside with an anime-style figurine; a doll which looks vaguely like the world leader you most abhor. Then it’s time to get to work.

Pushing a narrative which irritates you – yes, specifically you – is obviously my first priority… but if a totalitarian regime which controls another country, religious group, or corporation has sent me enough money, I take whatever steps I can to promote or censor anything that’s even tangentially related to what they’ve highlighted for me. If the entity in question also happens to have a very small minority stake in Reddit (or if one of the site’s executives has rumored ties to their organization), then I make sure to publicly fellate them whilst simultaneously denying their influence. The more sucking that I do, the more cash I receive!

Mind you, I don’t actually spend any of that loot, because moving out of my parents’ basement would mean that I wouldn’t get that crack-of-noon ego-stroking anymore. No, rather than using those ill-gotten gains to improve my lot in life, I sculpt them into life-size (and anatomically correct) sculptures – using copious amounts of my own neck-sweat as glue – of the various public figures whose actions or perspectives anger you.

Anyway, once I’ve made certain that my corrupt overlords are pleased, I start looking for ways that I can ruin individual users’ days. Randomly removing posts (and then pretending that they were in violation of some invisible rules) is the only way that I can become aroused, after all, and I need to stand at my full, massive two inches if I’m going to be able to reach myself past all of my stomach fat. Having come to attention, I put on my self-pleasure hat – which is a trilby, of course – and start banning people who disagree with my opinions.

Those opinions having been carefully structured to go against yours, of course.

It’s time for a break by that point, so I spend an hour or three lecturing my waifu body-pillow about a given social trend that makes people (again, specifically you) upset. She’ll usually offer some kind of counterargument, which means that I need to throw an impotent tantrum. Whenever that happens, my only solace comes by way of somehow abusing my awesome Internet powers, typically while gorging myself on junk food, soda, and heaping handfuls of straight-up lard. Don’t ask me how that abuse actually manifests, though, because I’ll silence all of the remarkably insightful questions that you send my way. The thing is, I’ve never heard any of them before... and since my hidden masters haven’t told me how to respond, my only option is to screech at my computer monitor as I wildly flail around.

Those eight seconds of exertion tend to bring me pretty close to unconsciousness, so I have to completely ignore the communities that I govern for a while, thereby allowing a multitude of posts and comments to go through unchecked. Fortunately, they’re only ever submissions which you (once more, specifically you) find distasteful, so it still counts as a victory. At the same time, though, if you try to submit anything – especially if it’s entirely adherent to those invisible rules that I mentioned earlier – I’ll wheeze my way back into a semi-upright position for just long enough to mete out another completely unwarranted ban.

Finally, once all of that is done, I kill myself, frequently by dying in a fire. Getting the suggestion to do so dozens (or even hundreds) of times a day just proves to be too much for my utterly unfathomable intellect to handle, so I eventually succumb to the sweet embrace of death.

Besides, it’s the only way that I can get to sleep at night.

TL;DR: You don’t need to read this, because you’ve already decided that you know it all.
